BUSHS "MEXICO CITY" ABORTION POLICY DEPENDS ON WHAT THE MEANING OF "IS" IS
ABORTION AND ABORTION ADVOCACY WILL STILL BE FUNDED
Previously, your editor has pointed out that President G.W.B.s decision to restore the Reagan "Mexico City" policy, limiting the provision of your tax dollars flowing to overseas population control organizations was less significant than assumed by many well-intentioned pro-life leaders, in that, while the Bush policy does limit the direct use of U.S. subsidies to perform and promote abortion, nonetheless, the pro-abortion recipient organizations still get the money to which they are not Constitutionally or morally entitled, with these funds available to offset their other expenses, so long as the U.S. Treasury dollars are assigned to a separate bank account.
Now, in reviewing the policy as enunciated in the Federal Register (Vol. 66, No. 61, Thursday, March 29, 2001) Presidential Documents, "Memorandum of March 28, 2001: Restoration of the Mexico City Policy" over the signature of President Bush, it is clear that this is even less a pro-life victory than first believed.
"FAMILY PLANNING": YES, "ABORTION": NO --- WITH EXCEPTIONS
GWB: "The Mexico City Policy announced by President Reagan in 1984 required foreign nongovernmental organizations to agree as a condition of their receipt of Federal funds for family planning activities that such organizations would neither perform nor actively promote abortion as a method of family planning in other nations
.
"It is my conviction that taxpayer funds appropriated pursuant to the Foreign Assistance Act should not be given to foreign nongovernmental organizations that perform abortions or actively promote abortion as a method of family planning in other nations
except as otherwise provided below...."
ABORTION FUNDING OK IF NOT "A METHOD OF FAMILY PLANNING"
"The recipient agrees that it will not furnish assistance for family planning under this award to any foreign nongovernmental organization that performs or actively promotes abortion as a method of family planning in USAID-recipient countries or that provides financial support to any other foreign nongovernmental organization that conducts such activities. For purposes of this paragraph (e), a foreign nongovernmental organization is a nongovernmental organization that is not organized under the laws of any State of the United States, the District of Columbia or the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. ..."
FUNDING OF "POST-ABORTION" CARE IS AUTHORIZED
"Abortion is a method of family planning when it is for the purpose of spacing births. This includes, but is not limited to, abortions performed for the physical or mental health of the mother, but does not include abortions performed if the life of the mother would be endangered if the fetus were carried to term or abortions performed following rape or incest (since abortion under these circumstances is not a family planning act)."
FUNDING OF POST-ABORTION SERVICES PERMITTED
"To perform abortions means to operate a facility where abortions are performed as a method of family planning. Excluded from this definition are clinics or hospitals that do not include abortion in their family planning programs. Also excluded from this definition is the treatment of injuries or illnesses caused by legal or illegal abortions, for example, post-abortion care. ..."
GWB: "SAFE, LEGAL ABORTION" REFERRAL IS PERMITTED
"([P]assively responding to a question regarding where a safe, legal abortion may be obtained is not considered active promotion if the question is specifically asked by a woman who is already pregnant, the woman clearly states that she has already decided to have a legal abortion, and the family planning counselor reasonably believes that the ethics of the medical profession in the country requires a response regarding where it may be obtained safely).
"
GWB OKS ABORTION ADVOCACY IF "FAMILY PLANNING" PERSONNEL DO IT ON THEIR LUNCH HOUR
"Action by an individual acting in the individuals capacity shall not be attributed to an organization with which the individual is associated, provided that the organization neither endorses nor provides financial support for the action and takes reasonable steps to ensure that the individual does not improperly represent that the individual is acting on behalf of the organization. ..."
SEPARATE BANK ACCOUNTS FOR ABORTION AND CONTRACEPTION
"The recipient may request USAIDs approval to treat as separate the family planning activities of two or more organizations, that would not be considered separate under the preceding sentence, if the recipient believes, and provides a written justification to USAID therefor, that the family planning activities of the organizations are sufficiently distinct so as to warrant not imputing the activity of one to the other."
ALL U.S. FUNDS MUST BE CLEANLY LAUNDERED
"Assistance for family planning may be furnished under this award by a recipient, subrecipient or sub-subrecipient to a foreign government even though the government includes abortion in its family planning program, provided that no assistance may be furnished in support of the abortion activity of the government and any funds transferred to the government shall be placed in a segregated account to ensure that such funds may not be used to support the abortion activity of the government."
DUBYA SAYS USAID SUBSIDIES WILL FUND CHILD-SPACING ABORTIONS
"The requirements of this paragraph are not applicable to child spacing assistance furnished to a foreign nongovernmental organization that is engaged primarily in providing health services if the objective of the assistance is to finance integrated health care services to mothers and children and child spacing is one of several health care services being provided by the organization as part of a larger child survival effort with the objective of reducing infant and child mortality."

Produced in 1977 by a group of former high-ranking JBS members, "The Belmont Brotherhood" refers to the National Council at Belmont, Massachusetts where JBS national headquarters were originally located. Various sources cited therein document that the early members of the John Birch Society were also members of the liberal Establishment they pretended to oppose, and represented in great measure the corporate interests of America, which are advanced by the oaths of loyalty to one another in a secret brotherhood -- organized Freemasonry. This 12-page report concluded with the perceptive observation that the John Birch Society represents the most diabolical form of the Illuminati conspiracy:My head is a-spinnin after that trip ..."You may object: 'Look at all the great things [Founder, Robert] Welch has done - he has exposed the Illuminati.' Baloney. The Illuminati was merely a branch of the Conspiracy. How can one attack the Illuminati without attacking the diabolical power behind it: organized Freemasonry? Welch has provided the most valuable service of all time to the Conspiracy. He founded an organization to neutralize millions of Americans from discovering what the true power behind the Illuminati really was. And we concede the Mason's chose an extremely clever man to do the job. Welch, with the help of the Belmont Brotherhood, plays his role very effectively." 6.
You've all got a busy time here for the next ???? weeks, so I really appreciate your valuable input to this so far.
Sure-thing there Davis!
"Thanks for the bumps, guys. We'll get back to it tomorrow or Sunday.

Hey, BTW, I noticed that even Deb got the duty over Enron.
Don't Question _jim's stuff!! He's liable to start covering up the murders at Waco of all those kids spontaneously! BTW, he also knows ALL about the OKC/Murrah Murders.
You post a lame article that is full of holes, the holes are exposed, and you change the subject.
You can't defend what you posted, you won't acknowledge that it's baloney, and so you end up.....babbling.
So you say ...
Wanna be *proved* wrong?
_Jim's gonna catch some serious hell for revealing the fact the Birchers are part of the Mason Deception Strategy to make all criticisms of the Masonic Interlock look like they came from wackos with breath that smells like scotch and milk.
I suspect he'll be announcing a short hiatus to spend "more time with his family" any moment now.
I've got this policy against 'pounding helpless, intelligence-limited creatures into the dirt' - you, exhibiting as you do the complete inability to do even a cursory search on the world wide web the compound terms: "Young Americans for Freedom" and the "John Birch Society" obviously fall into the aforementioned category ...
I'm also taking this opportunity to announce that I need to take some time off to, ahh, you know, spend some ahhh ... quality time with the family ...
The connections ...
Howard Phillips, who founded The Conservative Caucus (TCC) at the direction of 33º Mason, Jesse Helms on whose staff he worked. TCC has an interlocking directorate (Phillips served on advisory board) with the United States Council for World Freedom (USCWF) of the WACL. Phillips also proposed the name for the Young Americans for Freedom and served on its board of directors.Conclusion: ... Bircher ...
That's pretty neat. I'm halfway working on software for dynamic ecomaps/timelines now. But I have a test for you:
What are the Averell Harriman connections with Presidents Bush and former President Clinton? Would any of them have been President without Harriman money? Make some connections for me.
And since we're talking about eugenic population control here, plot out the connections between the Bush family, the Pioneer Fund, Planned Parenthood, the Population Council, USAID, IPPF, the Human Genome Project, and the American Eugenics Society. (There are other tight connections, but you have to start somewhere...)
These people consider you to be stupid. Personally, I get mad about that.

Much issue was made about the "Mexico City" agreement in the last thread dealing with increased funding of "family planning" activities. Here's an analysis of that, and the above folks don't want to discuss it, just the poster, the personalities involved with The Conservative Caucus, and anything BUT the article.
